Fedora 44 : perl-Catalyst-Plugin-Static-Simple (2026-2d96cf2594)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 350967

Synopsis

The remote Fedora host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The remote Fedora 44 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the FEDORA-2026-2d96cf2594 advisory.

 Catalyst::Plugin::Static::Simple for Perl sets the CacheControl header to public for every static asset served. Consequently, intermediaries such as shared reverse proxies or CDN edge caches may store and later serve content that was intended to be private, thereby exposing sensitive data to unintended recipients.

 In this package, the plugin's code is changed to allow the Cache-Control header to be overridden and the Expires header to be set to 0.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Fedora security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Update the affected perl-Catalyst-Plugin-Static-Simple package.
